HOLLYWOOD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Quarterly Co. today announced Laughing Squid Founder and Editor in Chief Scott Beale and Managing Editor Rusty Blazenhoff as the latest contributors to the company’s subscription service. Every three months, subscribers to Laughing Squid’s Quarterly mailings will receive a collection of physical gifts directly to their doorsteps that are personally curated by the duo.

Quarterly mailings contain a variety of unique, tangible items, each of which reflects on the contributor who selected it and helps inform subscribers’ understanding of them. Each package also includes a letter from the contributor explaining how the items fit into that person's life and also features a theme chosen by the contributor to tell a compelling story.
“Our unique boxes will focus on items we find beautifully offbeat or wonderfully quirky,” Beale said. “Our hope is that our subscribers will find the same to be true for themselves and delight in what we’ve assembled.”
Founded in 1995 by Beale, Laughing Squid has been a consistent online resource for interesting art, culture and technology. In 2011, the blog won a Webby People’s Voice Award for “Best Cultural Blog.” Beale, Blazenhoff and an all-star team of bloggers continue to feature the most curious and fascinating places to be found. On top of the popular blog, Beale also runs Laughing Squid Web Hosting, a company that offers reliable, scalable and secure cloud hosting services.
“For nearly two decades, the Laughing Squid team has discovered the best of art, culture and technology online, and we are thrilled for that curative ability to extend offline to our subscribers,” said Quarterly Founder Zach Frechette, who also co-founded GOOD magazine and served as editor in chief. “Quarterly blends the virtual and real worlds to offer anyone a new way to connect with the influential people they follow and find interesting.”
